SFTP Agent - additional auth required...

[RSAAdmin]

I am having an issue configuring SFTP Agent.  The agent is presenting opening a PFTP session with the envision collector, presenting the key, which is accepted, but then times out with an authorization required error.  What would be causing this?

I ran into something similar by trying get around generating and registering new key pairs.

Did you make the registry entry with the same administrative ID generate the public/private key pair?  Are you using/sharing a key used on a different device?

I've found there's no way to get around what it says to do in the SFTP setup. 

• Logon with an admin/service account that doesn't have an expired password
• Enter this ID and password in the "logon as" tab on the NIC_SFTP agent service.
• Enter this ID and password in the scheduled task that will be used to pull/dump logs.
• Create the key pair using pUTTY.
• Copy the public key to the collector, and register it
• Go back to the event source server, and register the private key.
• Stop and start the NIC_SFTP agent service.

One other thing... when you generate the key with pUTTY, make sure that you select Yes to not use a pass phrase, just before you save the keys.
